Lyr Req: Marry and Go

Looking for information, lyrics etc, on a song I heard in Cornwall with a chorus along the lines of "They marry and go, as the years roll by ... they vanish and die ..." Some form of sea song. Dave of "Hanging Johnny" sang this one. Appreciate the info.

Cheers, Brian

It's in the forum. The song is called Outside Track and it's by Henry Lawson. Click here for a link to words and chords.
Blessings,

And here's another thread on the same topic with a link to a tune and another version of the song and chords. Henry Lawson is an Australian bush poet.
